Runny poo (Sorry)

HiSorry if this is a bit gross!My lo is 6 1/2 months and has always done lots of poos. However, the last couple of days or so he has had about 4 or 5 really runny ones a day. I wasn't sure if he was teething as over the weekend he seemed really out of sorts and i gave him some calpol. however, he seems back to his normal self apart from maybe sleeping a bit longer at his naps. I can't feel any teeth coming through although I really think he is teething.He is eating ok and the only thing that he has had different is the Heinz fruit custard pots.. Do you think that it could be them? His tummy doesn't seem to be bothering him at all.Any ideas? Should I take him to the doctors or speak to hv. Always feel like i'm phoning for nothing!!ThanksRachel

If he's back to himself, I wouldn't worry. You could try him on a Custard pot in a couple of days and see if the same thing happens. If it does, you know its that, if it doesn't then you can put it down to just a little 12-24 hour bug that he's over.Never think you are phoning your HV for nothing! It's what they are there for and it's always better safe than sorry XXX
